5.1.3 Resetting Lamp Life
Refer to
Section 4.1
.
Note:
Even though the alarm on the system can be deferred for a period of time, it is important to address each and every
alarm condition as they are indicating that there is a potential problem with the system and should be remedied.
5.1.4 Total Days of Operation
The controller also displays the total running time of the controller. To obtain this reading, press the push-button
once. The total running time of the controller will be numerically displayed in days. This information will remain displayed
for ten seconds and will then revert back to the lamp life remaining default screen. It should be noted that this value cannot
be reset.
5.1.5 Lamp Failure (Blank Screen)
When the system recognizes UV LAMP FAILURE (no current running through the lamp), the display will be blank
(no default UV LAMP LIFE REMAINING screen) and the system will sound an intermittent audible tone
(1 second on,1 second off). The system will remain in this state, until this condition is remedied.
5.2 Plus Systems Incorporating BA-ICE-CM Controller
5.2.1 UV Intensity (%)
The VIQUA Plus series of products incorporate a UV sensor which detects the discrete 254 nm wavelength of the
UV lamp. This information is relayed to the VIQUA controller and is the default display shown in “% UV output”. The
system will display the UV output between 50 to 99 percent. When the system drops below 50%, a low UV warning is
displayed as
and alternately flashes (at 2 second intervals) back to the actual UV level. Eg.
. Additionally, the
system will sound an intermittent audible tone (2 seconds on, 2 seconds off), during low UV conditions.
Note:
UV levels of
DEFERRAL
- To temporarily defer the audible alarm and re-activate solenoid valve (if fitted) during a low UV alarm,
press the timer reset button and hold for five seconds. This will mute the audible alarm condition and activate solenoid
output for 12 hours.
to
Indicates the system is functioning within a normal operating range.
to
Indicates the UV level is still within a safe level, however cleaning or lamp/sleeve replacement may soon
be required.
to
Indicates the UV level is nearing the point of unsafe UV intensity, UV system should be immediately
serviced.
<
Indicates the UV level has now reached a level that is unsafe. At this level the water should not be
consumed. The system/water supply should be examined to determine the reason for the low UV level
of the UV intensity. At this level, the solenoid output has been activated and if a solenoid is installed,
water will cease to flow.
